Egg Salad Sandwich

I have never made egg salad before. I've eaten egg salad before and today I decided to make some for myself.

Egg Salad Sandwich Recipe

This recipe is for a one egg sandwich. If you have more eggs and more people to feed, just double, triple, etc. the recipe.

Ingredients

1 hard-boiled* egg (large), peeled and chopped
1-2 Tbsp mayonnaise (to taste)
1 Tsp of mustard (to taste)
2 Tbsp chopped celery
1 Tbsp chopped green onion
Curry powder (to taste)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
1 leaf of lettuce
2 slices dark rye bread, toasted

* To make hard boiled eggs, place a few eggs in a saucepan, cover with at least an inch of water, preferable 2 inches. I use cold water. I then place the pan on the stove and turn it on high heat. I immediatly set the timer for 20 min. and let it go. This is my fool proof way of doing it. If I try to do it any other way, I usually screw it up. Drain the water from the pan, add cold water to cool the eggs, let sit a couple minutes longer.

Method

1 Mix together the chopped hard-boiled egg, mayonnaise, mustard, celery and onion. You can use any type of mustard you like, I used honey mustard and it tasted really good. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and curry powder to taste. Mix with a spoon.

2 Toast your bread slices. Put a layer of lettuce on one slice of toasted bread, spread the egg mixture on top of the lettuce, put another slice of toasted bread on top.

Makes one sandwich.

I actually made this with about 8 eggs so my whole family could eat it for lunch. I also added some salad supreme seasoning to it. Excellent and pretty easy to make. I love rye bread, but if you don't prefer it, any type of bread will work.
